Hi there,

Changes to preferences are made immediately, so an "OK" or "Accept" button would be a bit misleading / superflous.  The dialog can be dismissed via the regular "close window" box (via the window manager), but clearly this is not sufficiently user-friendly.  IIRC, this model was done to be compatible with Mac OS X usual preference handling, at the time.

I guess a "Close" button would help to address the usability issue, and give an indication too that changes are applied immediately.  I'll make a note to add that in for the next release.

Thanks for reporting the problem!
